My 2 bikes in living hall. I can't believe my uncle asked me to put the bikes at balcony ! So put my bikes at balcony...
1 hour over, 2 hours and I can't falls sleep ! Dam! So I went to move my GiantTRCSL3 bike back inside! Now I put on my room ! Hope later can sleep well...
balcony exposed to the weather and thieves...sumbat into store room or hang it in your room lar...
after kena stolen... bebola also kecut....
that's why i realized i cant fall sleep... so took my bike into my room, bebola kecut is gone... back to normal pressure... sleep well... at 12:30am.. and can wake up without fail at 5:45am to go gym for TRX...
garang sound?
no wonder i keep hearing it when ride with group... i woundering why my Xero Wheel no sound 1...
i tried to pedal even harder... got a little bit of sound, but not as loud as others... rupa-nya uses mahal wheels...
wah.. wat gym open at 5.45am ohh? got special happy hour service one is it...
my RM2 more sound solution.. open freehub, dig out all grease... throw sand in.. guarantee sound so damn garang you will jump off your bike...
no offense, but... it's crazy to buy sound with $$$ i like the days of shimano's silent clutch hubs (and we had to pay more for silent clutch hubs)... those were the fad back then... no sound = serenity... enjoy scenery and shit.. nowadays... all things terbalik adi... WTF world???
from their road range...
Sorry. My error. I ter-ate the "wake up" at 5:45am to attend 7:00am TRX session.
Since yesterday, auditor showing her un-friendly garang face and attitude while requesting / chasing me for documents. now u know why i stressed up!

i put my bike at balcony 1, new condo also have to put at balcony. wife reject my proposal - convert the store to bike room.
Today got new idea , 3rd bedroom make it to study + guest + bike room
your condo 3rd bedroom must be huge man! you staying 1,700++ sq ft condo?
i'm now desperately looking for new place! I been looking for 1 since long time ago... yet nothing that suite me or makes me straight away want to book pay deposit !
Any ideal condo for Cyclist with budget around RM400k? off course the square feet need to be at least 931sq ft, my old place.
i thinks my new place is much smaller with 800sq ft i guess...
so is eating rice... so, why you eating rice? wat else are we gonna talk about... this is a cycling thread in a sports channel within a techie forum...
we can't just be talking about girls and B2B massages all day long...
simply mean, i'm saved from poisons.
btw, this weekend ride..... Fraser hills!
on my previous virgin ride up Fraser hill, my group only go until Gap and waiting at shop in front which im not aware and i straight went up alone feel very unpleasure experience. No 1 helps me take photo of me taking bike up in front of clock tower...
This round, i must ensure my photo is taken on top of hill with my GiantTCRSL3...!!!

ask at the mountain biking forum, they do buy at bulk save the shipment cost and do have alot of experience buy online , can give advise
spare parts are okay. But not for the whole bike.
my friend brought his Giro LanceArmstrong yellow black helmet sent to SG and it's FOC for shipping. bloody Msia no Free shipping.
he mean complete bike.

Added on August 8, 2012, 12:26 pm new twist clic applicator on motorex lubes for more precise application of lube.... not expected anywhere near your bike shop soon....
wish i had this on my tube of ky jelly... won't be squirting it all over the place
35 updates from my last visit...! im back! yesterday on leave! renewed 5 years driving license! hehe...
the only time my legs are cramp is during 42km marathon... should be lack of mileage clocked on legs and de-hydration faster than hydration... cramp...
knowing ur legs by going more distance and longer plus more frequents, it's helps to prevent cramp.
since then, cycling never have cramp... even my 100km ultra... no cramp...
oh yeah... in my last 42km recently (where i only train in last 2 weeks), or 210km ride to Ipoh from KL, i had Hammer endurolytes kaw kaw! 1 hour 2 biji Hammer endurolytes pills to prevent cramp. at least it's work well for me.
Xero? My golden coloured Wheel on my Giant TCR SL3 is Xero Golden wheel !!!
wah... i thought the endurolytes is for speedy replacement of lost electrolytes as hydration is too slow in replacing it.... tai tau got alternative use punya...
haha... i almost never cramp for the longest time.. last time forgot when adi...i must be full of electrolytes.. YAY!!! no need bring biddon next time... lighter weight for me
when teleportation is a reality... i'll go fraser's anytime anyone ask me... driving 70K to get to KKB isn't wat i consider fun..
For the sake of KOM training, and sake of Fraser hill photo with lifting up bike in front of Tower clock, 70km is worth it...
we are not doing it weekly nor monthly ma...
soon, im going to try new nutrition... new diet... it's can gives you "explosive power" whenever needed in cycling... no wonder my P2K member can be so strong. it's train smart...
hahhaa.. we need you to expose the secrets... me too need explosive power... not in the toilet...
maybe minizian should swallow a ton of edurolyte pills before riding
this one is interesting... tested on the pros... and by the famous sports nutritionist dr. allen lim... now made available to the public but not malaysia... http://www.skratchlabs.com/collections/drinks
aiduh.... y la u showing the top notch nutrition yet not available in Msia...
come i teach u how to DIY to make your own sport drinks. it's works well for me.
Here the contains: water base on the portion below, (i mix in 1.5 liter water bottle with more than 500 ml water i thinks) Honey (can be any honey that you like, be it expensive 1, or cheap 1, just for some flavoring plus cab) (1 small tea spoon or more) sea salt (1 small tea spoon) lemon (i put 1 ice cube)
done! Shake well... if extra put in fridge, consume within 2-3 days.
portion wise, 'agak-agak" lo... try until you satisfy with the flavour....
too complicated... i'll go back to my bruce lee protein shake...
jus some raw meat + eggs... blend with milk...
shake of champions... chugg already sure masuk tandas like champion too...
Added on August 10, 2012, 1:52 pmwoo.. can't wait for the vuelta showdown... If froome is not too destroyed riding the tour and olympics... he should be causing some fireworks in vuelta with Andy and Alberto also taking part...
this will be an exciting October for vuelta... Astro sports package... here i come, you mutha f***a
Hmm... 2-2.5k will sound reasonable for me... I was thinking if I know some brand I would narrow my search and it will be easier... Cause brand like Giant, Colnago etc etc definitely will not meet my requirement..
So I was thinking about Exitway or Polygon... I these are some least famous brand that suit newbies..??
Giant vs Colnago cant compare light to light... it's different level.
QUOTE(butthead @ Aug 11 2012, 11:01 AM)
stay away from exitway... U can look at at polygon, khs & merida..slightly fancier & pricier...u can take a look at scott, avanti maybe..
if u want pologon, can visit RodaLink, Merida visit Pedalsport, Scott can visit KH Cycle at Damansara Perdana.
QUOTE(KKLOO @ Aug 11 2012, 12:26 PM)
Ohh... Thanks for the advice...
But I thought Exitway from USA should be better than Polygon..?? And exitway bikes comes with mavic wheels i see...
Brand can be from US, but manufacturer mostly done in China.
We are looking forward to your 1st bike. I thinks we all are happy to guide you on any cycling difficulties...
FYI, i have no problem riding my Giant TCR SL3 when i brought it. in fact, im loving it when im riding it.
Why?
bcoz i'm been riding bike since small. apa-apa macam punya bikes i ride before. started with kid bike, cycle around in my small hometown... then when growing, change to bigger bike, normal bicycle, with front basket....
then, my mum's bike... my grandpa bike (the big wheels, black color bike) then finally mountain bike.... and somehow, i found there's old roadbike (steel) in store... then start riding.
when i'm 1st riding the roadbike, im really dont like the bending... but it's gives me speeds... im start to love it.
for newbie, unless you know what's your direction, your commitment towards your goal, else forget everything, just get few hundreds roadbike to ride....
where to find few hundreds roadbike you might ask. I dont know any specific one in KL, but you can go to your neighborhood's normal bike shop asking.
last time, when i "bising-bising" want to get mountain bike back in my hometown, i selected the model that's cost RM450... the bike owner have to order as he never bring in the bike. waited dont know how many days, finally i got my bike, was gila babi happy!
